Splunk updates core platform solutions
including Data Stream Processor and Connected Experiences; brings
capabilities to a broader variety of data
Splunk Inc. (NASDAQ: SPLK), provider of the Data-to-Everything
Platform, today announced the latest enhancements to Splunk Cloud,
Splunk Data Stream Processor (DSP) and Splunk Connected Experiences
that enables customers to bring a broader variety of data to every
decision, question and action. These improvements strengthen the
foundational technologies of the Splunk platform and extend its
cloud and machine learning (ML) capabilities.
As organizations adapt to new work environments and consider how
to keep their businesses running and employees safe, cloud
solutions are needed for organizations to scale their operations
and support new growth. The benefits of the enhancements extend
beyond the platform, resulting in improvements to premium solutions
that help IT operations teams better predict and prevent problems
with a unified monitoring experience, and for Security teams to
better protect their businesses by modernizing and strengthening
their cyber defense.
“As organizations evolve, they face many challenges including
the transition from on-premises to the cloud, which increases
operational complexity,” said Sendur Sellakumar, Chief Product
Officer, Splunk. “With Splunk’s cloud and platform solutions,
organizations can minimize those complexities and make the shift to
the cloud with high scale and performance in order to achieve
business value much faster.”
Splunk Helps Customers Shift to the Cloud with Accelerated
Splunk Cloud Advancements
In order to allow customers to embrace their growing data
sources, Splunk is bringing innovations faster to customers with
Splunk Cloud and an accelerated release schedule for premium
solutions on Splunk Cloud. Splunk IT Service Intelligence (ITSI)
4.5 for Splunk Cloud delivers a centralized framework for
monitoring and investigation in one view, and enhanced service
monitoring and event management features to support large
deployments.
Available with Splunk Cloud or Splunk Enterprise, the Splunk
Machine Learning Toolkit (MLTK) has been updated with a simplified,
customizable interface that provides broader access of the tool to
less technical users and removes many barriers for machine learning
exploration. MLTK version 5.2 provides visualization capabilities,
a new family of Smart Assistants offering step-by-step guided
workflows and additional SPL commands for machine learning
algorithms. This toolkit enables users to build models for needs
like forecasting, clustering and outlier detection. The Spunk MLTK
extends the value of the Splunk platform by enabling customers to
act as citizen data scientists. Customers can apply machine
learning to their data to identify actionable insights that can
help deliver key services and valuable business outcomes. The
Splunk MLTK 5.2 app is now available for download and is
complimentary with any Splunk Cloud or Splunk Enterprise
entitlement.
Splunk further expanded its cloud capabilities through a
strategic partnership with Google Cloud that brings customers a
single-pane view for investigating, monitoring, analyzing and
acting on their data in Google Cloud’s infrastructure. Splunk Cloud
on Google Cloud gives customers more options on their cloud journey
with Splunk.
Splunk Strengthens Core IT, Security and DevOps Capabilities
with Data Stream Processor 1.1
With the continued increase of data that exists in multiple
locations across organizations, customers need help harnessing
information wherever it is and get it to the right teams and
systems, in order to generate real-time insights. Splunk DSP 1.1 is
a real-time stream processing solution that continuously collects,
processes, and delivers data to the Splunk platform or other
destinations within milliseconds. The latest release brings
customers more control, visibility and insights with the ability to
collect data into a single unified location for better visibility
and leverage advanced streaming capabilities. Additionally, DSP 1.1
lets organizations mask customer or sensitive information on the
stream and then route data to different locations within their
organization with data guarantees.
Splunk customer Mars has seen a consistent increase in appetite
for data. Mars uses Splunk DSP to get data from disparate sources
and platforms into one single view.
“Splunk has made it possible to get that single view of systems
health while also offering smart ways of alerting, automating and
remediating any possible issues,” said Antonio Guedes, security
analytics lead, Mars. “As we mature with it, it’s become apparent
that Splunk is the solution for our broader issues. Now, we have
over 300 users all self-serving their own insights from
Splunk.”
Splunk Connected Experiences Add Mobile Device Management to
Analyze Data and Act on Insights Anywhere
Splunk Connected Experiences deliver insights on-the-go through
augmented reality, virtual reality and mobile devices that provide
users with the ability to securely access their data anywhere at
any time. Splunk has expanded Connected Experiences capabilities to
support popular mobile device management (MDM) providers such as
MobileIron and AirWatch which allow customers to securely deploy
Splunk Mobile at scale and bring Splunk solutions to an
increasingly mobile workforce.
Organizations are seeing a shift in the way teams are working

security and corporate policies in order to help keep themselves
